Normalize author names in CHANGELOGs
Reported by Xavier Noria | November 30th, 2008 @ 12:22 AM | in 2.x
This patch normalizes author names in CHANGELOGs according to the map in http://gist.github.com/23458. That hash was built with many contributions from people in the core mailing list.

Nice, Xavier.
If I want to fix my old trac username, which isn't included, should I just fork your gist? Or submit a new patch?

Hi Chris, please just send me an email to fxn at hashref dot com. I'll update both the gists and this ticket.
Also, if someone wants to add some normalization or have their name normalized in a different way just drop me a line!

Great, I got the email and updated the patch. Thank you Chris!
Also added "noradio" to Marcel's map and "xaviershay" -> "Xavier Shay".

The original script looked for attributions at the end of lines, the most common place.
Some of them were not there though, for instance
...when not given an options hash [DHH]. Examples:
I refined the script to catch those ones as well without introducing false positives that I know of.
Patch updated.
